QUESTION:

I’m going to stump you yet… maybe. What is the card a cowboy calls “Calamity Jane” and what is a honda you couldn’t go cattle driving without?

– R. G.

ANSWER:

honda2-7190845 In poker, a “Calamity Jane” is the queen of spades, named, of course, for Martha Jane Canary (1852-1903), the famed female army teamster, angel of mercy and Wild West Show performer.

A cowboy’s honda is not a vehicle, but the small loop on the end of a lasso that the running line goes through.

Next question….?
